 Thanks to all who came out and raced and cheered at the 3rd Annual Johnston Green Days Criterium hosted by the DMOS/RDMB Race Team. Also thanks to our chief official, Bill Hardin, our second official Sandy Dunivan, and our promoters, Joe Bechen and Jeff Mertz. And thanks to Alyssa Douglas for staffing the registration table, the corner volunteers (especially Stan and Roz Boyer), and the great spectators! Of course thanks to our race sponsors including Irwin's Bike Shop, Starbucks, and El Mariachi. This race was a fundraiser to benefit the DMOS/RDMB junior race program.

Here are the results from last Friday's Rose Festival Criterium in State Center, IA. While the Juniors had light rain and the roads stayed wet until the Masters race we had clear skies for most of the evening. All the feedback I've heard so far has been positive but I know we had some issues. The lead juniors went off the course when a car appeared in the 5th corner on lap 3. They added 2 blocks to that lap, regained the course, and retook the lead. We also had a van on the course during the kid's race and inadequate first aid facilities.

The IMBCS is firing up again this Sunday, May 31 with a new course at Summerset State Park, just north of Indianola! Because of the close proximity to the Des Moines metro, a lot of folks have ridden the course over the past couple of weeks and the feedback has been nothing but positive. All proceeds for the race go towards CITA, and without CITA we wouldn't have all of the great trails that we do in Central Iowa. So if you're looking for some great fun in the dirt, Summerset is the place to be this weekend!
Details for the race, including directions can be found at the following website: http://www.centraliowatrails.com/blog/?page_id=432
Hope to see you there!
Cam Kirkpatrick,
President, IMBCS

If you have been around bike racing very long, especially in springtime, you have probably heard cyclists talking about ‘racing into shape'. If you aren't familiar with this term, what it means is you use races to whip yourself into shape. At first blush, it sounds kind of backwards, after all, aren't you supposed to train first and then race? What ‘racing into shape' means is that you actually use early season races as intense training sessions to help accelerate your fitness up to racing fitness more quickly. Should you do this, and if so, what are some watch outs?
